Introducing Zen-Bogie πππΎπΎππ
So by now you have figured out that the “project to enhance our lives” was adding a puppy to the family again.
Our little Zen is not “just any puppy”. He is a very special puppy, for a few reasons:
1. He was chosen for us by Bogie and Ducky.
2. He was born on St. Patrick’s Day, like his dog mama.
3. Zen is Bogie’s baby cousin by birth. Zen’s mama, Sunny, and Bogie’s mama, Bailey, are full sisters.
He is a very sweet little boy, and so far living up to his name. Although quite active and curious, he is a calm little guy. He slept through a couple of his hu-daddy’s dementia-induced tantrums already. And wasn’t at all fazed by one during which he was awake. He just went right on being curious about his environment of the moment. Hopefully he’ll continue to be unfazed.
Since we only brought him home yesterday, we all still have much learning about each other to do yet. I will be posting more about our little leprechaun as the days and weeks go by.

wow, he looks beautiful. All I can say, really, is “Here’s looking at you, Kid ” Twice even…

Thanks Jan!! He is our little whirlwind. But he takes hubby’s dementia tantrums in stride, like Bogie did! Must be the gene pool.

Squeals!! So happy for you, Sue. Congrats on adding some Zen to your life. I hope it helps comfort your heart. He sure is a cutie and I’m looking forward to see him grow up and fill the paws of those angels before him. π₯°

Thank you, my friend. This little boy is so sweet! He has expanded my heart, like ‘CindyLu Who’ expanded the Grinch’s heart. He’s not much of a snuggler yet, but that’s ok. He’s too busy playing with his toys and exploring his new world away from his dog mama and siblings. Bogie and Ducky picked the perfect puppy for us!

Thanks, Michael! Hubby and I are the lucky ones. Bogie and Ducky did a wonderful job of picking out their baby brother for us! (Yes, technically Zen is Bogie’s cousin; but in this house they are all brothers and sisters. π)

Thank you! He is already loved very much! Now this dog mama has someone to love on again, I can stop grieving so hard and enjoy the wonderful memories of Zen’s older brothers and sisters. They will all always be loved and missed; but this little wee one has brought joy back into my life.

Thank you! Yes, my plan for Zen is to train him to be hubby’s therapy pup. He will pick up where Bogie left off. I will be working with the trainer I contracted with to train Bogie. But Zen will also be my second baby boy. Bogie will always be my first baby boy; but now he is also a big brother. His spirit will always help me guide little Zen, and will guide Zen as well.
